Rosa Parks was a person that stood up for her civil rights. She went to a bus in Montgomery and she sat in the white aisle

and sat in the seat. Then the bus driver told her to get out of the seat.She responded by not moving she said that there is no one even sitting in the seat.

Then the blacks started boycotting the buses. If people didn't ride the bus people would not have money.

The the Klu Klux Klan started responding by bombing houses. They also bombed Martin Luther Kings house where he died. Since the black people paid a lot of money to ride the bus, instead they didn't ride it so the bus drivers wouldn't earn a bunch of money. The court ordered the bus to let people sit where they want black or white. That's how the boycott ended.
